Star opener Rohit Sharma was given the charge of team in the shortest format as the Indian team management wanted to give skipper Kohli a much-needed break, especially because he plays all three formats.
Ahead of the first Test, Kohli took out some time from a shoot to play with kids at a residential complex in Indore. In a viral video, the skipper was seen hitting a big shot to the kid who bowled him a fuller, straight onto the bat.
The Indian captain will be making his return after a break, he truly deserved as he was part of theΒ Australia series, the IPL, the World Cup, the tour of West Indies, the series against South Africa.
Kohli recently celebrated his 31st birthday. On the special occasion, he took to his Twitter handle where he explained his 'journey and life's lessons explained to a 12-year old' self.
The star batsman arrived in Bhutan to celebrate his day with none other than his better half, Anushka Sharma. The pictures of the couple from their vacation have already gone viral on social media.
